The Modified Production mania continues when we clean up, dust off and polish everything in readiness for the return of the mighty men and women of speedway who are preparing themselves and their machines for a cracker of a Club Showcasing. Superbly presented cars and driving talents will be on centre stage on Saturday 11th February 2012. We’ll have Home Grown Champion drivers out in the field with hopefuls and successors carving out names for themselves. This is the proving ground where we get to see the shining stars of past, present and future together on track showing what they can bring.
The Modified Productions will be burning the gas hard in some flat-strapping, gear stripping, fast-track-frenzy around the famous Mothar Mountain circuit in a hazy inferno of lap tearing thunder. Modified Production Monster Madness at its most devasting brilliance! Right out there for all on show.
And if you thought that might be a whole lot of entertainment laid on fast and furiously – don’t forget we also have the highly entertaining ‘Women in SPEEDWAY’ extravaganza. The glamour of our Women in Speedway out on track driving their race cars around our gorgeous circuit in a stylish display is sure to dazzle. Well… perhaps… maybe they’ll just put on a really good show of how good they are at getting around our Mothar Mountain track. It’s pure gold – entertainment at its most elegant… grittiest.
We also got Super Streets rev-ving up the Mountain in a Super Street Extravaganza. These machines rock. They’re fast and they’re like a younger cousin to the Modified Production with a whole lot to show. So they won’t want to miss out on any of the attention. The Super Streets will be competing in Round 2 of the ‘Tri-City Series’ and the racing will be on!
We have the Junior Sedans fresh back from their adventure to the outback at the Australian Titles in the Northern Territory.
The Formula 500s return to Mothar Mountain Speedway this night as the open-wheeler-formula + our exquisitely shaped track + plenty of exuberance = fun and plenty of outstanding drama.
And lastly but certainly not leastly we have a huge field of Street Sedans out for a run with just one month away from their State Title, which is being staged here at Gympie’s Mothar Mountain Speedway on 10/11 March 2012. The wild-bunch will be mixing it up in a frenzy of close-calls and seat-of-the-pants racing stuff.
We will have a full list of nominated drivers in all event categories up in here from the 5th February, so stayed tuned.
13/01/12…Pam Franz – information received from ASCF/Speedway Sedans Australia
Please be advised that the Board of Speedway Sedans Australia has banned the use of specialty ‘street legal race tyres’ in its Junior Sedan Class competition – EFFECTIVELY IMMEDIATELY.
This ban includes but is not restricted to, Dunlop Formula-R and Yokohama Advan tyres, which the SSA Board regard as race type tyres specifically made for public road competition and, therefore outside of Rule 29 (e) and (g) of the Junior Sedan class Specification Book 2011, which state -
(e) Racing tyres are NOT PERMITTED
(g) Any tyres listed on a Manufacturer’s ‘Specialist’ tyre list…………..are NOT PERMITTED
The SSA will conduct further future investigations into this matter.
For further information please contact your state technical office.
